Does anybody know what our record is with grant atkins as ref. I know it's poor.
Game was over at half time after he gave them 65 % ball in first half. Couldn't buy a 6 again.

Not blaming Atkins for that performance. We were quite pathetic all on our own.

But, in answer to your question.....

Manly's first view of Grant Atkins as a referee was in 2014 (we beat the Worms 22–18 at Brookie). He's refereed us in 21 games and we have a 11–10 record.

Disppointing tonight... not in any order
Foz - pretty sure he was trying but nothing came off, confirmed it was correct not to retain him
DCE - the kick on 3rd tackle when we'd been starved of possession - why does he do this stuff?
Bullemor - I hoped to see a bit more impact from this bloke, he has the build but doesn't seem to rip in?
Turbo - has a tendency to mope around at times, not sure what effect his body language has on his teammates but sure makes me feel bad. If you play you judged on performance, i'm sure he's under massive pressure to take the field, hopefully he will improve

Need to turn it around next week vs smoked Eels, we need to flick a switch mentally, the players have plenty of ability but tonight was a shocker (all the 6 again calls killed us, they happen too quick for me to judge whether they are fair or dodgy, but I thought a couple were very dodgy)
Very well put, about the 6 agains and the poor mental attitudes
Spot on about the players yiu mentioned too
I’d also throw in guys like Marty - no effort or passion. Huge bloke / pea heart!
Yeah bullemor is a disappointment who adds nothing
And you’re right about Tommy. Looks like he’s smoking must the time if **** doesn’t go east for him

Interesting fact though with Manly and Grant Atkins refereeing.

In our last 3 games under him we have lost 40–12 to Melbourne (2021 Qualifying Final), 40–22 to Souths a couple of weeks ago, and 38–0 to Brisbane tonight.

Again, just a coincidence that he was the ref. Like tonight we sucked in those other two games as well. Mostly anyway. We showed a lot more heart against Souths than we did tonight.

Thanks for the stats...50/50 doesn't seem so bad. It just seems so much hard work in the first halves under him. After half time he invariably puts the whistle away.

Here's the thing:

Aloiai - 63 metres
Croker - 13 metres
Keppie - 38 metres
Bullemor - 35 metres
Jake Trb - 47 metres
Davey - 36 metres
Sipley - 30 metres

Not ONE forward at 100 metres
Des needs to start giving sipley more than the last few mins of the game... and Bullymore is not a 2nd rower I'm sorry!

Ethan would know that too.

He didn’t come here as a second rower , only playing there because if the injury toll.
